During an interview on FOX News’ “Special Report with Bret Baier” Wednesday, Baier elicited quite the response from Cruz when he brought up the President’s dismissal of the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of Conservative groups, among other scandals, as “phony.”

“Well, I think it is interesting he calls them phony scandals when at the time they broke, he professed to be concerned about them,” Cruz told Baier.
